Who were the attacks by? That’s the one thing I didn’t get from the article, and I have a sneaking suspicion it’s because it was by ‘good All-American’ racist white teenagers. Fourteen people attacks one kid and no one sees? That fits their usual M.O.

My ten dollars is on the whites. I just don’t believe the major newspapers and networks would’ve missed the chance to air the story if it had been another problem between those pesky POC, not to mention an especial chance to demonize blacks as dangerous mobs. Of course, since people were actually arrested it could go either way. They aren’t big on arresting the hate crime commiting whites. We’ll see though.
